Queensland adoption crisis — no child has been adopted from state care since 2019, despite a decade of legislative promises.
Stephen Page, Multi-award winning surrogacy lawyer and accredited family law specialist at Page Provan, breaks down the findings of the Child Safety Inquiry by Paul Anastasio Casey, commissioned by the Queensland Government.
In this episode:
- Why the Child Safety Inquiry found adoption has become "institutionally invisible" in Queensland
- How adoption differs from guardianship orders and Family Law Act parenting orders in giving children lifelong legal permanency
- Why fewer than 10% of children in long-term care receive the legal reviews they're entitled to
- How historical forced adoption practices have wrongly discouraged contemporary adoption, despite very different legal safeguards today
- What the inquiry recommends to restore adoption as a genuine option for children who can't go home
